Oatmeal Exfoliant Bar

Launched back in 2002, Trader Joe's Almond Ginger Scent Oatmeal Exfoliant Bar has recently undergone a packaging change to the more eco-friendly kraft paper (goodbye, plastic!).

Rose Facial Oil

A quality moisturizer with a lovely fragrance, Trader Joe's Rose Facial Oil is a steal at $5.99. While this product is not an anti-aging miracle maker, the non-oily or greasy formula makes it worth a try.
